Originally by: Idami Raptor A few responses to some of the extremely callous and uncaring people I've seen respond here...
1.) Telling someone to leave their corp to avoid a war...is absurd. It's like telling someone to stop hanging out with their friends because the neighborhood bully targets them. I don't know about you, but to me a corp is more than a bunch of people I do stuff with sometimes, they're supposed to be my friends. Having to abandon that to avoid a bunch of griefers is unacceptable.
ETC ETC ETC BLAH...
Ok. You don't have to leave your corp, but in this case, he was in an alliance. Which is a clearly valid target for the privateers. The OP's joining of this alliance is his own choice. The people in his corp, and alliance, could have joined up and given the privateers a run for their money. No need to leave corp at all, just band up (which equals to doing stuff with) and give them a run for their money.
2) New players. Newb Corps. NPC corps. And the excess baggage that experienced players hiding in them doing missions all day that they come with. And there're plenty of people who don't mind open PVP, as per all the people hanging out in 0.0 and low-sec.
3) Your alliance...finds it...hard...to...find...AMMUNITION? Wait, what? Your alliance dosen't have any industrialists who produce stuff? You need to get some 's in then (Even BoB has 's! [Don't dec me please!] )
And...uh, yes. Alts. Nub alts with around 1 hour of training = tier 1 indy capable of hauling your ammo and stuff through high sec.
4) Can I have your stuff?
5) How is PA hurting the game besides dec'ing empire corps and alliances? Did you expect empire to be PURELY PVE? Anything that can be dec'ed have a chance to be dec'ed. Heck, even haulers in NPC corps are, and have been, targets of suicide ganks. Nowhere's safe. Corp, or No Corp.
Simple fact is, EVE dosen't seem to be the game for you. As you said, EVE caters neither for carebears and "casual" players (casual mission runners seem to be racking in billions of iskies, despite your views). So, ta ta o/
PS. Everyone knows Privateers are full of PVP alts. No one's stopping you from using a shopping alt. -------------------- <&Hammerhead> Observator results make pretty good safe spots |
